I am sure tech sales experience can count as long as you find an appropriate NOC for it (of skill type 0, A or B).

What NOC fulfills your ministerial requirement?

Please don't expect me to answer if your post title has urgent in it and it is not really urgent. Urgent is 911 or you have a definite deadline tomorrow, not that you would like to send in the application soon

I don't think they necessarily worry about the degree so much, especially MBA because people do MBA and go into all sorts of jobs. Good luck.

Benny i have another question for you!

I have stayed in colombo, Sri Lanka from 1991 to 1995 but i stayed there only for three months after my 18th bday..do i have to get a police clearance from Sri Lanka only for 3 months...? since its only three months, is it still mandatory for me to submit police clearance. please advise.

CIC doesn't need it if it's less than 6 consecutive months: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/intro.asp

it very explicitly says u are supposed to get it if u have stayed for more than 6 months after ur 18th bday

"In general, you and everyone in your family who is 18 years of age or over need to obtain a police certificate. You must obtain a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six consecutive months or longer since reaching the age of 18"

i guess i don't need it then..yippieeeee..even though i stayed in colombo for four years but only three months after my 18th bday... hehehehehe \:d/ thank you guys.

Guys,... I'm not sure of I should ask this question : what if I go in and out of a country very often, and if I should total up all the times I have been in said country, it's more than 6 months, and it's after my 18th Birthday,... so do I need a Police Cert from there please ? By the way, I have an apartment in the said country where I sleep in when I am there. So, do I need the clearance ?

Why so much mystery about that said country? You need a certificate from that country as it seems that is your place of residence, unless you explain your situation better, that's what I'm inclined to say.
